To commemorate the 72nd anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War on Sept 3, students from a primary school in Qingdao city made a series of eggshell paintings which narrate stories of war heroes. They collected discarded eggshells and cleaned and dried them. Then they used compass points to carefully paste eggshell pieces on drawing boards.
